- Page 3 • Zip the door shut and attach the extra long guy rope above the door. Then using the thicker ribbed peg, peg out the guy ropes around the whole tent without putting any of them under too much tension. • Put the A frame together and place inside the door - it’s easier to get it through the door if you complete putting it together once inside. Put the spike through the hole at the top of the door and at the feet into their holding pockets. Then go outside the tent and screw the rain cap on. • N.B. All the guy ropes need to follow the lines of the seams in the roof. Adjust the guy rope slider so you have approx 50cm of loop to the peg. This allows adjustment in both directions. It is important to make sure the Bell Tent stays symmetrical and that the tension is evenly spread. The pegs should be at least 1m from the tent.

By doing it this way and following the seam lines your Bell Tent will look like this: perfect and without creases. • TIP: If the door seems too tight move the two guy ropes either side of the door in towards the middle of the door to relieve some tension. • All our bell tents come heavy duty zipped in groundsheets, so you can enjoy the breeze on a warm day. Simple unhook the elastic rings from the pegs and unzip the the 2 zips from front to back. And then use the toggle and loop system to hold the walls up. Don’t forget to deck it out with your personal touches. www.boutiquecamping.com +44 (0)203 394 2986 info@boutiquecamping.com...
